Pupusas are a staple in El Salvadorian cuisine. They are thick, corn patties stuffed with beans, cheese, beans and cheese, or beans cheese and pork (called pupusas revueltas) and served with tomato sauce and curtido. For this recipe, I am making them with beans and cheese.
This recipe is an idea I came up with, to satisfy my craving for “the real thing” while on a no salt, no fat, no wheat, low glycemic, healthy eating plan! Of course, though not flakey like the traditional dough made with butter and shortening, these are made similar to an omlette or crepe, and have all the flavor without the fat! If not on salt restriction, you may add salt to taste.
These are delicious curry-flavored pastries found in the Caribbean islands, particularly in Jamaica. Great as a snack or as a Jamaican meal compliment. I also enjoy them with a spinach, corn, and bean salad. I have used pre-packaged Crescent rolls (2 cylinders rolled out and cut into 10 circles or phyllo dough (15 sheets cut lengthwise to make 30 triangles) as a time saver. Not as good or as spicy as the handmade pastry, but sometimes there’s just not enough time. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days an reheat in microwave on medium heat.
